Goodbye 2011

Well, 2011 has come and passed.

Kergin and I managed to squeak in one episode of Threat Shark before departing Kamloops for our respective homes and the winter class break.

Now we both look forward to a brand spanking new year in 2012 that should be full of excitement and opportunity, not to mention many more awesome and spectacular episodes of Threat Shark!

Wishing you and your families a safe and exciting New Year’s Eve!

I have one last song for you in 2011. Enjoy Major Tom (Coming Home) by Shiny Toy Guns.

We Want the Airwaves: The Podcast Edition

You’ve been waiting, and now it is here! The first episode of Threat Shark is now available for streaming here on our blog. You can also download the show and take it with you on your iPod.

It’s in two parts and a bit rough and unpolished, but there were some complications with getting the recording this time around. We hope to smooth this out for future episodes.

Enjoy!

What’s yo’ flava?

With Threat Shark – Episode 1: We Want the Airwaves under wraps, I have a few things on my mind as Kergin and I plan for Episode 2 over the winter break.

As mentioned, we like to get some audience feedback and input to help us out with the show. While we are striving to play a wide variety of genres and musical styles on Threat Shark, it is always nice to know what our audience enjoys the most. Check out the poll below and please be so kind as to let us know which song you enjoyed the most on Threat Shark – Episode 1.

For those of you who missed it, we hope to have a digital recording of the show uploaded for your listening pleasures within the next few days!

Episode 1: We Want The Airwaves (Live Blog)

We are live from the CFBX studio on TRU campus in Kamloops, B.C.

We’re here with Steve Marlow rockin’ it on a Saturday night. We hope you’re having just as much fun as we are!

Brendan is a bit nervous. But he is running the board so he has reason to be. I’m just the keyboard jockey right now. -Taylor

Shout-outs to Marvin Beatty, Zac Scabar (all the way from the Netherlands!), Jeremy Kuhn, Jason Schreurs, Mike Davies and all of our other listeners.

Check out “Control” if you want to see a great bio-pic on Joy Division’s Ian Curtis.

Our mics were hot that time. Sorry kids. Also, check out Score! A Hockey Musical for more music by Kathleen Edwards and a cameo by my favourite, Theo Fleury! -Taylor

It’s a friend song faceoff! Bo Aganaba vs. The Split Seconds!

Our night is almost over… sad panda is sad. – Taylor
